Little Innocent Liar

Forgotten Past Memories Of Him

[ Two Years Ago ]

  " Why are we here again?" Damon asked , a bit scared.

We were back at the Korolevskaya Lair in Russia , a day after meeting Mr. Turgenev's greatest weapon. He were walking over to the training room to observe.

" Blood Cryer wants us to take notes on.. Him..." I said.

" I am not excited to be here. I'll be the target." Damon said.

  I rolled my eyes and stopped walking to look at him.

" Relax , will you? I'm here. He wont hurt you as long as I am standing right here next to you , you big baby." I said.

" Right , right..." Damon said , a little nervous.

We walked in the training room where Mr. Turgenev , Caleb Kennedy and Axel were in.

" Again! " Mr. Turgenev yelled.

Both Caleb and Axel striked a punch at a punching bag.

" You must be strong enough to break a skull!" Mr. Turgenev yelled.

" Oh f*ck no! I'm out!" Damon said , about to run.

I grabbed him by the back of his shirt and pulled him back next to me. Mr. Turgenev looked over at us when he heard Damon.

" Ah , Miss Amana and Mister Rosenboom. Welcome. " Mr. Turgenev said.

Caleb looked over at us. Axel glanced over to us too before looking away.

" Mr. Turgenev." I looked over at Caleb. " Kennedy."

I then looked at Axel.

" ... Dean..." I said.

" Good morning." Caleb said.

" Morning." Axel said but still looking away.

" We're uh -- Here to observe." Damon said.

" If that's okay with you , sir." I said.

" Why , of course. Take a seat over there." Mr. Turgenev said , pointing at the seats.

We walked over and sat down. I crossed my legs , looking at Axel's direction.

" Alright , boys. Let's try this again. Pretend like the punching bag is someone you absolutely hate. Now--" Mr. Turgenev said but before he even finished , Axel had thrown a punch and the punching back tore apart.

Caleb's eyes widened in suprised. I sat up straight , impressed.

" Eep..." Damon said , terrified.

He cracked his knuckles.

"We’re going to need another one." He said calmly , referring to the punching bag .

" No sh*t." Caleb said.

" Punching bag!" Mr. Turgenev yelled.

One of his men came in , pushing another punching bag. Mr. Turgenev then patted Axel's shoulder.

" Good job. I'm so proud of you." He said to Axel , happy.

Axel smiled a tiny bit.

" Thanks..." He said.

Mr. Turgenev looked at Caleb.

" You'll be able to do it. Just keep practicing." He said.

Caleb rubbed the back of his neck , staring at his punching bag.

" Fascinating..." I said.

Damon looked at me.

" Fascinating? That's terrifying." He said.
